CAUTION: Not suitable for children under 36 months. Choking hazard due to small parts that can be swallowed Now focus on the green spiral funnel. When a marble rolls into the funnel, it rolls around and around before it falls into the bottom and continues on its way. Use a stopwatch to record the time of a marble reaching the funnel, then leaving it. Early play in infants tends to be solitary or takes place alongside other children. Young children learn how to interact with other children through play but they can also explore and learn independently. The initial play experience for infants is when they begin to explore through moving and acting upon the world. Many toys offer infants the opportunity to learn more about their world. Young children will sometimes act out some aspect of their lives e.g. going to the shops and then they involve their toys in these activities. These young children are playing independently but they are also reinforcing their understanding of the social world by acting out scenarios. Friction is a word to describe a force that slows objects down. It occurs when two objects rub against each other and affects the speed of a moving object. Different materials create different amounts of friction, or resistance. If a marble rolls across a rug, it would move more slowly than across a wood floor.

This means that children may naturally understand something about how the world around them works. Infants are beginning to understand about physical objects and their effects upon one another. They also learn a great deal about the world around them by repeating actions that have an effect. For instance, infants demonstrate their understanding of ‘object permanence’ when they pull away a blanket to reveal a toy that has previously been hidden from view. Young children continue to build knowledge of their world by acting on the environment around them.
